Mike Napoli, 1B, Cleveland Indians

FanDuel Price: $3,900

Mike Napoli and the Indians right-handed bats are in a superb spot against righty Tyler Duffey.

The Minnesota Twins' starter is putting up reverse splits, faring well against lefties but allowing right-handers to rack up a .411 wOBA with a 36.4% hard-hit rate.

Cleveland has a lot of good left-handed hitters -- or switch hitters who will hit lefty today -- but Napoli will be their top right-handed masher. Southpaws are his preferred side, but he boasts a 37.0% hard-hit rate with a 43.4% fly-ball rate against righties.

Add that to the fact the game is at Progressive Field, which ranks seventh in park factor, and Napoli will have a chance to do some serious damage.
